Thirty Five
Thirty five+ years
of fighting an ED
Called bulimia
is far from easy
'cause healing
is not linear it's
setbacks falling
down & crawling
back up starting
over at point 0
the holistic work
i am doing with S
causes changes
slowly over time
going to the gym
and working out is
a mood boost yet
still didn't suffice
added microdoses
Truffles to the mix
it certainly asks for
some heavy artillery
this fucking ED of mine
of fighting an ED
Called bulimia
is far from easy

Excessive Intake Of Chocolate Pretzels
Heartbeat in my fingertips
I should know better than this
The comedown is hell
But it’s something I miss
Too much is never enough
I love feeling like shit
10 o’clock and my heart’s still racing
Can’t sleep
My hands won’t stop shaking
I take too much to feel awake
And to forget everything
It’s the perfect type of wrong
Because it doesn’t last long
What’s the harm
I’ll feel better later after I starve
Self hate pouring out of my lips
I shouldn’t have done this
I...
I should know better than this
The comedown is hell
But it’s something I miss
Too much is never enough
I love feeling like shit
10 o’clock and my heart’s still racing
Can’t sleep
My hands won’t stop shaking
I take too much to feel awake
And to forget everything
It’s the perfect type of wrong
Because it doesn’t last long
What’s the harm
I’ll feel better later after I starve
Self hate pouring out of my lips
I shouldn’t have done this

In On It
Once I was thin, relatively, I think,
I don't know
but by comparison, not at all.
When they said I was "healthy"
it was a joke I wasn't in on,
a frog in my cereal,
maggots in my macaroni,
it was the taste of iron
in every bite
I wanted to be relative, I wanted to be thin
by comparison, thinner and shrink wrapped
so tight, so smooth, my bones were clutching
skin around them like a blanket
in a storm
And then I was thin, and the hollow mapped
out my sinew, and praise filled...
I don't know
but by comparison, not at all.
When they said I was "healthy"
it was a joke I wasn't in on,
a frog in my cereal,
maggots in my macaroni,
it was the taste of iron
in every bite
I wanted to be relative, I wanted to be thin
by comparison, thinner and shrink wrapped
so tight, so smooth, my bones were clutching
skin around them like a blanket
in a storm
And then I was thin, and the hollow mapped

Exhausted
Watching body positive media for me is like putting a band aid on a much deeper cut. It's comforting for the moment, but isn't a quick fix.
Trying on a pair of shorts yesterday that were tighter than usual, I still find that I'm triggered deeply by things like this happening. My perfectionist tendencies want to still go haywire. While I didn't fully panic, I still subconsciously was feeling helpless about it.
Hurricane Beryl hit here in Texas and made our power go out. My mom and I share one car, and more than one time, my mom would be gone with it before I even got up....

who is the verse maker
Who is a verse maker
Poetry is an odd art form practised where there are more
poets then writers because everybody, especially when young
has a poem (usually hormonal) that needs expression, some end
up as art teachers and prefer not to speak of their youthful attempts.
Seasoned poets go to poetry meetings, rather like alcoholics go to AA
there is always some new way, to express old truths
some of the old crusty ones run poem magazines and have a firm opinion
on how poetry should be written; the best of them
care more about...
